I guess this is proof that there are drag kids.


I've been told it doesn't exist.

The left loves to gaslight.

Gaslighting doesn't exist, you made that up.

reply

Well played.

reply

I probably sit more on the right politically but I also love gaslighting.

The propane ones are my favorite.

This could ignite a serious conversation.

Pushed by their parents who want attention.

reply

You beat me to it. ;D

reply

I wouldn't say pushed, but more like parents allowing their kids to pursue it. Drag is no different than burlesque in terms of sexuality.

reply

Yes, and every red-blooded American father dreams their son will aspire to be Gypsy Rose Lee. ;D

reply

I'm not saying they want it. I'm saying they do nothing about it because people will say they're not being supportive of their child.

reply

The most successful children I have observed, (grades, sports, manners, friends, et al) have parents who behave like parents. Those parents provide guidance and discipline, not support of the latest trends and they care nothing for what other enabling parents may think.

From the examples I know, true support means creating boundaries.

reply

Unfortunately we live in a time where parents will be called homophobic if they didn't allow their child to do it even if they were completely against it.

reply

And falling off a 1,000 foot cliff is no different than falling off a 1,000 foot building in terms of death. This type of argument is not as effective as you think it is.

reply

I just meant that a kid doing burlesque would be frowned upon but for some reason there are people who are fine with drag kids even though the sexuality is essentially the same. There's a double standard.

reply

Totally agree and it's disgusting.

reply

I agree in the sense that this reminds me of JonBenet Ramsey. I think it's best if kids spend their time in school and playing with their friends.

But, I knew a boy in school who loved playing around in women's clothes and wearing a wig. That's what he liked and that's what he chose. Maybe it's possible these kids have this drag performing stuff in their blood. To each his own. Drag is a reputable form of entertainment which has existed throughout history. So yeah, JonBenet Ramsey.

How did this show go under the radar since 2019??

reply

I guess it wasn't released wide enough. There aren't many votes on IMDb.
